Format :

SYSCALL code

Description :

Raises a System Call exception, then immediately passes control to an exception handler. The code field can be used to pass information to an exception handler, but the only way to have the code field retrieved by the exception handler is to use the EPC register to load the contents of the memory word containing this instruction.

Operation :

T:SystemCallException

Exceptions :

System Call exception
